"Brother Ji is so nice. He always thinks about us. This dress is so beautiful."
Ning Qingyuan looked at the clothes in front of him, put on the new sweater, then tried on the coat, and then put on the scarf and gloves sent by his elder brother. He straightened his shoulders and instantly felt that his whole temperament was different.
"Little sister, look at your second brother. Does he look like a cadre in this outfit?"
"Like, this sweater and coat go together really well."
Ning Xiyue walked around her second brother, looking at him, and then tried the clothes on herself.
The letter said that in order to keep out the cold, Comrade Ji specially bought clothes that were one size larger so that he could wear more clothes underneath.
Ning Xiyue was originally wearing four layers of clothing and did not take off any of them. She also wore an extra thick sweater that her mother had sent her. It was a perfect fit, not bulky at all, and was warm.
This coat can be considered a luxury item in this era.
The brother and sister were very happy to receive such a piece of clothing.
Ning Qingyuan took off his clothes lovingly and folded them bit by bit.
After thinking for a while, he asked worriedly, "Sister, do you think it would be better if I hang my clothes? There will be creases if I fold them."
Ning Xiyue looked at his serious expression and comforted him, "It's okay, just put it where you want. It's just perfect for when you go to town to pay New Year's greetings in the next few days."
"No, I still have to find a hanger to hang it on."
Ning Qingyuan walked towards the front yard carrying his things.
Ning Xiyue shook her head helplessly and took her things over and put them in the cabinet.
After cleaning up, the two siblings started preparing hot pot for lunch.
Bai Yu and his wife were also invited to this hotpot dinner as a return treat during the Chinese New Year.
In the following days, the two siblings wore the coat sent by Comrade Ji, the sweater knitted by Yunmu, and the scarf, gloves and socks prepared by their eldest brother and sister-in-law, a complete set of new clothes for the New Year.
Go to the town to visit Mayor Huang’s house to pay New Year’s greetings.
I also went to the home of Aunt Shen from the Youth League Office to pay New Year's greetings, who is Comrade Ji's aunt.
I also went to the rental house in town to pay New Year's greetings to Li Quan's family.
Finally, I went to wish Comrade Li a happy new year and handed over some custom-made medicines requested by the superiors to Comrade Li.
In order to avoid getting the clothes they wore when visiting all the houses during the New Year dirty, the two siblings would change them off after visiting each other and put them on again when visiting the next house.
Ning Qingyuan never gets tired of this and hopes that everyone can see his new clothes and hear others' compliments.
Ning Xiyue also accompanied him to wear it.
After hearing enough praise, Ning Qingyuan put away his clothes contentedly.
The New Year holidays passed quickly, and the good days of hibernation also ended.
Winter goes and spring comes, and we enter spring again.
This means that the time for resuming the college entrance examination is one step closer. Tongzi has already given her a countdown to the college entrance examination, and she feels a sense of urgency.
It reminded her of how she felt in the second semester of her senior year of high school. Every day, as she watched the numbers on the blackboard get smaller, the more angry she felt in her heart, and her mind became more and more tense, as if it were wound up.
Now, seeing the countdown days of the system again, she was surprisingly calm and felt relieved. She had been preparing for almost two years, and now it was finally the countdown. She was only happy and had nothing to worry about.
But in order to avoid any accidents and to get good grades, Ning Xiyue spent more time reviewing the subjects for the college entrance examination and more time doing the exercises during her free time in the clinic.
Other studies such as pharmaceuticals, beauty and health products, winemaking, etc. are only used for relaxation during extracurricular breaks.
Influenced by her, Ning Qingyuan never put down his book during his free time at the coal mine. Every day when he returned to the Youth League Home, he would sit at the kitchen table with Ning Xiyue to do a set of exercises.
Chen Yechu works even harder than before, studying for an extra hour every night. He used to go to bed at eight o'clock, but now he goes to bed at nine o'clock. He even asks Ning Xiyue to join him, under the pretext of making progress together.
Time flies by unknowingly, we bid farewell to the busy spring planting, usher in the busy summer harvest, and enter the fruitful autumn harvest.
On the evening of August 10th, when Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan were sitting in the kitchen eating ice jelly, Bai Yu, who had gone back to visit relatives, appeared in front of them, exhausted.
It looked like it was heading straight for them.
"Sister Bai, you're back. Come over and have a bowl of ice jelly to cool down." Ning Xiyue quickly stood up and greeted her, bringing a stool for her to sit on.
Ning Qingyuan went to get a clean bowl to fill with ice jelly.
"Don't be busy yet. I have something important to give you." Bai Yu took out an envelope from her bag with a serious expression and handed it over: "This is a letter my aunt asked me to bring to you two. Please open it and take a look."
Ning Xiyue naturally took the letter and opened it.
At the beginning of this year, she got in touch with Comrade Ji's mother. Ji's mother was very kind and caring to her. They often exchanged letters and sent gifts to each other.
When Ning Qingyuan heard that the letter was also sent to him, he went over to read it together.
Seeing the above content, Ning Qingyuan's pupils dilated, and he leaned closer to look at it in disbelief, and then great joy and shock appeared in his eyes.
With a slightly trembling hand, he pulled Ning Xiyue's sleeve and asked in a trembling voice due to the huge shock of the information: "Sister, is this true?"
"Mother Ji wouldn't lie to us." Ning Xiyue looked at her second brother with a firm gaze and gave him a definite answer: "Since she said so in the letter, it must be true."
"Everything above is true. My aunt's mentor attended the symposium."
Bai Yu next to him gave a more definite answer, put the big bag in his hand on the bench, and looked more serious than ever.
